Signs and Wonders Paperback / softback
by Tracy Ann Morse
Paperback / softback
Description
Signs and Wonders traces the intertwining of Protestant religion and the development of the deaf community from the nineteenth through the twenty-first century.
Tracy Ann Morse draws on nineteenth-century speeches, sermons, and pamphlets; highlights the role of missionary movements in the spread of sign language; and shows how film and stage productions drew on religious themes in their portrayal of the deaf community and its struggles.
The first book to take a serious look at the intersection of religion and the deaf community, Signs and Wonders breaks new ground and opens up new avenues for continuing study.
